Consigning is the easiest way to turn “outgrown” into cash – without the hassle
You’ll clear space fast, help other families score great deals, and keep qulaity kids’ stuff in circulation
Why Consign?
Earn money on items you’re done with — kids grow fast, and those closets add up.
Skip the time-suck of marketplace messages, porch pickups, and no-shows.
We make it doable with clear steps, pricing guidance, and help when you need it.
Feel good about it—your items help local families and reduce waste.
New to consigning? You don’t have to figure it out alone – we’ll walk you through it step by step.
If you are like everyone else we know, you have bins of kid items that are still in great condition, but can no longer be used by anyone in your family. Get those items back out into the community and get a big-ole’ check in return! Consigning is easy (much easier than a garage sale!) and addictive – AND consignors get to shop before the public.
There are two sales every year; one focused on Fall and Winter, and one focused on Spring and Summer. See the schedule on our Upcoming Sale Information page to find exact dates.
THE DETAILS YOU'RE WONDERING ABOUT!
- You will receive 70% of sales, much higher than consignment stores. AND – volunteering isn’t necessary to receive this high percentage.
- You only pay $11 to consign! This consignment fee is collected at time of registration through PayPal. (Don’t have PayPal? You can also pay by a credit card, through the PayPal website. Just follow the prompts.) This fee is non-refundable and non-transferable and helps pay for our fixed costs such as advertising and the facility rental.
- You set the price of all of your sales.
- You tag all your own items using an easy tagging system with two separate options (one handwritten, one digital) for creating your tags. Pick your favorite, or mix and match!
- If you’re worried about the time commitment, check out our Half-Pint Helpers program, where you split the proceeds with someone who does the tagging for you.
- You (or a friend) can attend the consignor pre-sale! To be eligible, you must have dropped off items to sell – not just paid the registration fee. Only one person per consignor may attend the presale. If you would like to have you and your spouse/partner/mother/friend shop together, we recommend that you or the other person volunteers. If you consign and volunteer, you will get two entry passes. Note volunteer entry passes allow for an earlier entry – want to be FIRST to shop the sale? Volunteer!
- Payment is via echeck – checks are delivered to the email address you sign up with within 10 business days.
- You decide to pick up the items you did not sell, OR have us donate them after the sale is over.
- Selling a lot of items? Consignors with 5+ bins of items to consign are eligible for a scheduled drop-off time prior to the sale. See Upcoming Sale Information for drop-off scheduling (usually two to three weeks before the close of consignor registration). Drop-off scheduling is first come first serve, but you can always come at any point and wait in line.
- Half-Pint Resale reserves the right to limit items or turn away any items that we feel do not fit the sale’s scope and/or capacity.
